Errands run (like picking up the new pair of glasses that I need for this trip, going to the bank, etc.) TBD

So this time tomorrow I will be well on my way to Amsterdam, Nairobi, Lusaka, eventually making my way to Harare. I've got my iPad and I'll be listening to Christmas music whenever possible so that I'm doing my part to kick off the holiday season.

It was wonderful to spend time in Mexico! I’ve wanted to travel in Mexico for years
but my husband was not the least bit interested.

Last spring during an airfare sale, my son
and I decided to make plans. It’s always
amused me that whenever I ask my husband about doing something, he can be less than enthusiastic but
if I just go ahead and make plans, he is always 100% on board. I love that about him. Now I can't wait to go back!

Sunrise

At certain moments it was hard to sit back and enjoy the
moment. Hurricane Sandy was on my mind
and because of my role at work there were some relief effort planning that
needed to be done. What did we ever do before the internet, Skype, Blackberries
and iPhones?

Breakfast fresh from the tree

There were a few times I felt guilty about relaxing in such a
beautiful place when so many people in the northeast were, and still are struggling.

Snorkeling just a few feet away from my hammock!

This weekend has been a whirlwind as I prepare for my trip
to Zimbabwe – lots of shots, meds and bug spray.

Vacation is over

There may be a gap in my posts but I can
promise you I will have plenty to share when I get back. I’m taking my iPad so maybe I’ll get a post
in before the end of the month.

About Me

Welcome to Jojo's Joys, a place where I share bits and pieces of my daily living adventures here in Georgia and from lots of other places. I hope you’ll linger a bit to read a post or two and while you are at it, leave me a note and let me know what you've been up to. It’s always nice to hear from blog friends. Some people know me as Cheryl but my sweet granddaughters call me Jojo. Thanks for stopping by – hope to see you again, real soon!
